Deconvoluting Effects of Lithium Morphology and SEI Stability at Moderate Current Density Using Interface Engineering (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 36/2024)
Planetary Lithium Islands The cover image of the article 2400693 by Yi Cui, Stacey F. Bent, and co-workers depicts a unique planetary-like microstructure with lithium islands achieved by resistive hafnia coating on copper. The work introduces an interface engineering approach that allows the decoupling of two critical lithium (Li)-metal battery parameters—Li-morphology and solid electrolyte interphase (SEI)—in their kinetically convoluted regime. The article highlights that Li morphological control is more practical due to the challenges in SEI preservation.
